STOP THE WHINGE-O-RAMA Boris Johnson blasts EU leaders moaning over shock Trump win

BORIS Johnson has told European leaders to stop their “collective whinge-o-rama” about Donald Trump’s victory in the US presidential election.

The Foreign Secretary, who previously said the brash billionaire is “clearly out of his mind”, said it is time to “snap out” of the “doom and gloom” surrounding his election.

BoJo, who has also said Trump's call for a ban on Muslims entering the US showed his "stupefying ignorance", told reporters in Serbia that "people should focus on the opportunities... and not the problems".

Focusing on the opportunities is Ukip leader Nigel Farage who is flying to the USA this weekend and hopes to have a meeting with Trump about strengthening ties between our two countries.

Daily Telegraph reports ministers will have to seek help from Farage as, unlike him, they have no links to the President-elect’s inner circle.

After speaking to Vice President-elect Mike Pence, Johnson said: "I would respectfully say to my beloved European friends and colleagues that it's time that we snapped out of the general doom and gloom about the result of this election and collective 'whinge-o-rama' that seems to be going on in some places.”



Johnson said Trump has spoken of a "spectacular relationship" with the UK and "wants to sign a free trade deal".

During the phone call between Theresa May and the President-elect yesterday, Downing Street said he told the PM he wants their relationship to be similar to the one Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan had during their time in power.
